    Week 8 310 Paper

    Submit a 7 to 10 page paper detailing a major program that  has been managed, via the acquisition process, over the past decade. The  content of the paper should demonstrate your understanding of the  acquisition and program manager processes discussed over the past eight  weeks.  

     

     Review all Learning Objectives. Research the learning objective in the library and on the web.    Write this 7 to 10 page paper, plus the title page and a reference page.   That means a 7 page paper would actually consist of 9 pages and a 10  page paper would actually consist of 12 pages. The title page and the  reference page are never counted in a formal college paper.   As always, read all the lesson notes before you start this  assignment as new or current events may have been updated since the  start of class.
